2024-08-21 00:34:34 +0000 UTCIt's really rare finding people who know absolutely nothing about Star Wars :) Most people I've watched usually know about lightsabers, or what Darth Vader looks like. Star Wars had such a MASSIVE influence on pop culture, it's good you're watching, as a lot of films reference Star Wars (even Lord of the Rings had a small nod to it). Yes, it does start at Episode 4. About 20 years later, George Lucas went back and made Episodes 1 - 3, but it's better to watch them in the order they were released. If you enjoy them (and it looks like you are already), then it can be fun to go back and watch what happened in the past in the first 3 episodes, although to me they don't quite have the same magic. Particularly for this episode, just remember it was the very first one ever made, and they didn't have anywhere near as much of a budget. Also some of the special effects didn't exist before Star Wars, Lucas and his team had to invent them - so things get a little more refined (and expensive) in the next couple of films. And don't worry about mocking Leia's haircut - there are about a million parodies of it. She never wears her hair like this again, so you can relax!

2024-07-31 06:47:21 +0000 UTCNo need to let that go. It is an important issue and George Lucas must be held accountable for it π

2024-07-31 01:08:59 +0000 UTCThis movie was my 1980s childhood. The last 13 minutes of this movie (the trench run) is burned into my brain π And you were right to comment that the battle between Obi Wan and Vader - it really is poor π
Duncan
2024-07-31 00:56:54 +0000 UTCPSA...... Han Shot first!!!! I know it's an old issue but I'll never let that nonsense go. Han would have shot the alien without warning. That's his character. π€ Nerd moment over ...

2024-07-28 15:33:38 +0000 UTCStill get chills when you hear that score from John Williams rise as Luke watches the suns set

2024-07-28 15:28:56 +0000 UTCI saw this at the theater when it was released, and was simply amazed πππ please continue watching star wars

2024-07-28 11:05:44 +0000 UTCYou guys haven't watched Star Wars before??? Oh my are u in for a treat

2024-07-28 07:09:50 +0000 UTCI wish I had known that you were thinking of watching these movies because I could have gotten you the actual 1977/1980/1983 Star Wars films, instead of these which are essentially versions that have been messed with. They did touch up the special effects which isn't so bad, but they added a bunch of garbage (like the rats in Mos Eisely and a bunch of other jokey stuff) and altered scenes like when the Green Rodian Greedo confronts Han Solo (aka Indiana Jones) in the bar. Have you watched Episode 5 and 6 yet? If not, let me know and I will get you versions without added garbage. I have versions with touched up special effects but without other changes.

2024-07-27 19:43:19 +0000 UTCC-3PO (also called Threepio) is NOT a cyborg. He is 100% robot, same as R2-D2
Edward Olson
2024-07-27 17:31:59 +0000 UTCAs it said in the opening of the film, Star Wars takes place "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away." So no Earth ever in these stories.
Edward Olson
2024-07-27 17:31:12 +0000 UTCPeople need to stop calling things "fun facts."
Edward Olson
2024-07-27 17:29:29 +0000 UTCNo, you just revealed it, you spoiling idiot.
Edward Olson
2024-07-27 17:28:50 +0000 UTCNo. There is no 7, 8, 9 in George Lucas' Star Wars.
Edward Olson
2024-07-27 17:28:10 +0000 UTC"That John Williams score gets me every time!" Same here, same here. One of my favorite movie score moments is when Luke is almost ready to fire his torpedoes, where you have the horn section alternating notes and it transitions into the symphonic strings theme while Obi-Wan says "Use the Force, Luke!" What a moment. One of countless great musical moments in this trilogy.
Brandon
2024-07-24 20:29:09 +0000 UTC100% agree!
Brandon
2024-07-24 20:25:44 +0000 UTCGreat movie series, and I hope you guys enjoy the rest as much as you seemed to enjoy the first one! After you finish with Star Wars you should check out Spaceballs by Mel Brooks.

2024-07-24 19:52:31 +0000 UTCDid you body shame Jabba the Hut??? Lol, just kidding π
Bare Thomas
2024-07-24 13:35:09 +0000 UTCGreat reaction as always! That John Williams score gets me every time! IN MEMORIUM: RIP Carrie Fischer (Leia), Peter Mayhew (Chewy), Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin), David Prowse (Darth Vader body actor), Alec Guiness (Obi-wan "Ben" Kenobi), Kenny Baker (R2-D2).

2024-07-24 04:53:59 +0000 UTCI first watched this in 1977 when it first cane out. I was 13 years old and my mother took me. The queue stretched out of the cinema and around the block. She fell asleep during it. I believe I next watched it in a cinema in 1984 when it was combined with the other two original Star War movies one afternoon and evening, followed the next morning by the then only three existing Star Trek movies. 6 movies in 24 hours and numerous cokes left me buzzing to say the least!

2024-07-22 20:48:18 +0000 UTCLOL "Movie Munchies: Standing by!" hahahah why is that so funny

2024-07-22 20:14:03 +0000 UTCConsidering that it's almost half a century old, it's not too shabby ;p

2024-07-22 13:27:11 +0000 UTClmaoo your faces during the opening text. I haven't seen this film in probably 13 years

2024-07-22 09:39:18 +0000 UTCThat is the problem the inconsistencies. Itβs best just to avoid them and stick with the original 3. All the other stuff isnβt necessary.
Angrytoybox
2024-07-22 05:20:01 +0000 UTCNot all of them are bad. But there are some bad ones.
Eric Muirhead
2024-07-22 04:48:44 +0000 UTCFun fact: you ladies are watching the "Special Edition" versions of these movies (2011 blu ray version I think), which has a lot of added CGI elements, updated explosions, some added/changed scenes, changed music, etc... For instance, when Han tells Jaba (the alien) "Jaba, you're a wonderful human being," that is an original deleted scene when Jaba was actually a human character. Or in the bar where Han Solo shoots the alien guy... in the Special Edition, they make the green alien shoot first, and Han shoots back. But in the original, Han just kills the alien guy outright. That moment alone has been changed 5 times in various releases. There are even teams of volunteers who dedicate time to preserving the original versions of the movies in various ways, Harmy's Despecialized Editions, Project 4k, Revisited, Silver Screen Edition, and many other fan projects!
Brandon
2024-07-22 03:38:11 +0000 UTCgreat reaction, really enjoyed it, hope you react to all of the Skywalker saga (which would be episodes 4, 5 and 6, then 1, 2 and 3 and finally 7, 8 and 9, there are other spinoff films and TV shows but you can always watch them later if you wish), people tend to get really opinionated about Star Wars and which films are good and which are bad and you will probably see that in the comments, but I think it's best for you two to form your own opinions about which movies and characters you like so don't pay too much attention to that stuff, I think every movie has something in it to enjoy even if i definitely prefer some movies to others, anyway, it's been fun seeing you two go through these major franchises, I would suggest the Pirates of the Caribbean movies if you want a similar epic franchise, oh and I haven't seen Tien on here in a bit, is she going to feature in any upcoming reactions?
Jonathan Kidman
2024-07-22 03:17:18 +0000 UTCFun reaction thank you so much you two!
fan
2024-07-22 02:59:14 +0000 UTCAnother very fun reaction. When this movie came out in 1977 it was one of the best experiences for my generation. Very happy you enjoyed this one.
Charles W Jansen II
2024-07-22 02:07:50 +0000 UTCThe Threesome of Leiah/ Luke/ Hahn will for be revealed in for the next film: The empire strokes back. I Hopefully that you women will be for watching it for sure.
Jozsef Csatajszki
2024-07-22 01:22:53 +0000 UTCI am amazed y'all are starting Star Wars back to back with Lord of The Rings. Talk about pulling the entire geek empire. Now you just need to start Star Trek and Avatar: The Last Airbender (the animated tv series obv)
Anna Kyruin
2024-07-22 01:00:38 +0000 UTCWow I've never seen a reaction were the reactors didn't have at least some minor knowledge about Vader, the force, lightsabers etc, boy are you guys in for a ride!
Rippan
2024-07-22 00:06:38 +0000 UTCBut that would ruin/spoil one of the best movie moments of all time in "The Empire Strikes Back". I like the prequel trilogy too, but the ladies watch the movies in the best order.
Digitalversager
2024-07-21 23:28:00 +0000 UTCNo episode 1 phantom menace. I loved Darth Maul. Plus I only really like the Jedi knight storylines. The rebellion is cool but not as exciting imo
Jβaurda
2024-07-21 22:30:38 +0000 UTCBold statement, if you're referring to the modern Disney trilogy lol
Brandon
2024-07-21 22:27:19 +0000 UTCNope, you didn't miss anything. The correct order is 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9. The first three are good. The next three are... different. The last three didn't need to be made.
Alec Dacyczyn
2024-07-21 22:23:35 +0000 UTCGeorge Lucas, the writer/director of Star Wars, and Steven Spielberg are actually good friends and support each other's careers. Spielberg told Lucas he wanted to make a 007 movie, but George said he had a better idea and they made Indiana Jones. I originally saw Star Wars - A New Hope- when I was just seven years old, and it really blew my mind. I really related to Luke Skywalker because I was also growing up on a farm. Unfortunately, no droids to help with the work. I'm looking forward to your reaction to the next film, The Empire Strikes Back.
Steven Roy
2024-07-21 22:17:24 +0000 UTCDamn yall taking it back. Shoulda started with the newer versions in my opinion. Those are my fav
Jβaurda
2024-07-21 21:29:25 +0000 UTCChi isn't entirely wrong about 1997, in 1997 the Star Wars trilogy was re-released in cinemas as a special edition with improved special effects. Great reaction as always ladies...I'm already looking forward to the next parts.π
Digitalversager
2024-07-21 21:23:14 +0000 UTCAfter Lord of the Rings, I was so hoping you ladies would do Star Wars. And happy you started with Episode IV instead of 1. Let's go!
Looney
2024-07-21 21:03:00 +0000 UTCAmen to that!
Brandon
2024-07-21 19:51:43 +0000 UTCJust beginning the watch, and already two points of interest to note: β my surprise at the ladies knowing roman numeral counting (I've known many english-as-first-language folks, both young & older, that don't know of it) β the first time (that I'm aware of) which we get to hear the ladies read sections of text out loud... Chi as custom narrator, an unexpected treat.

2024-07-21 19:38:30 +0000 UTCJohn Williams is the GOAT
Mark S
2024-07-21 19:37:56 +0000 UTCDonβt watch any Star Wars made by Disney. It will ruin your experience with this franchise
Angrytoybox
2024-07-21 19:31:15 +0000 UTCWoo hoo! What a classic trilogy. This trilogy has been with me and my close friends ever since I was a child. The fantasy world, charming characters, the practical visual-effects innovations, the musical score by John Williams, it's truly a masterpiece. Hope you enjoy this!
Brandon
2024-07-21 19:06:16 +0000 UTCYes! Star wars! Good way to start the series. π
Mark S
2024-07-21 18:57:11 +0000 UTCOMG! Wasnβt expecting this one yet. VERY curious how you ladies will see this epic saga.
